foreign girl at crab orchard pharmacy

[american by birth]

what the hell were these people thinking to hire a foreign girl who can only speak very little english and cant understand nothing that people say to her.

[watcher]

Our ancestors were all foreign when they came to this great land. America is the land of oppurtunity. I've not met the girl your talking about but I believe she should be given the chance to live the American Dream. Would you rather she be on welfare.There should be a place for everyone in this great country.

You've got that right watcher. Our foreign ancestors came to this great land and took it away from the rightful American. Unless you are 100% native American (American by birth) which I am most certain you are not. There is nothing else to say.

[Poor Man]

the Indians migrated here from Mongolia and other Asian descendants was here before that.

America should be for Americans. Not foreigners who can't speak English. They need to get jobs in their own country and that way our American people can have jobs and stay off of welfare. It is stupid when you go to pick up a prescription and you have to repeat your name 10 times and then spell it 5 times so she can understand. That is crap and McDonalds is getting just as bad. Sometimes I feel like we are in China instead of America around here.

Maybe she needed a job and was willing to work hard. What business is it of yours who someone hires? If YOU are smart enough to own your own business, then you can hire whomever you want to hire. I'm glad the pharmacy is willing to help someone earn a living regardless of their race.

i am far from racist.. but it does tick me off ppl from other countries get more opps. then americans these days.. I attend MSU.. which is very expensive and they have a recriting center in Nepal.. well they pretty much get a free ride including room and board.. they don't by text books cause they are too much money one tried to steal a book from me that i pain 195$ for and said it was hers.. but they have the money to get top of the line cell phones and lap tops.. its bs..when they are in class.. can't learn anything either because they speak their lang. to others in class loudly or they don't know any english and have to have everything taught 10 times and if u disagree with something that they say.. they get pissed off (no i'm not saying all.. but most)

[agree]

If you hire a foreigner o.k....but don't put them in the front. Put her in the back where people don't have to repeat their name 100 times and then go get an American to do her job for her cause "she can't understand." There are plenty of jobs she don't have to talk to people.
The most aggravating is when you go through a drive through and they put the stupid foreigner at the window and they can't understand you and you sure as hell can't understand them. Put them in the back making burgers or even at the front window putting the orders together. WHY put them at the drive though?
WHY put this foreigner at the register when she could hand over any ones drugs to you just to get you out of the door cause she don't understand what your saying.
And I agree about the foreigners at M.S.U. They are everywhere and if anyone should get a free ride it should be the ones who was born here! They shouldn't be allowed in college here if they can't understand and speak English as well as us.

I think we should worry about our own country and unemployment rate before we worry about other countries. I feel sorry for the people in the other countries, but we still have unemployed people here, uneducated, underpriveledged, and hungry children.

You are so right..the only true Americans are Indians..and they had the land taken away from them!!!!..The only true Americans are Native Americans..Indians!!!!!

If anyone comes to this country " legally " then they should be welcomed and not made to feel they are stepping on someones toes. The ill-legal immigrants are the ones I have a problem with, they ARE here to suck us dry.......my opnion .

Instead illegal immigrants have as much if not more rights than we do.

[DannyLeeB]

they are afforded basic human rights, but not the rights of the American citizen, it may seem at times they have more, but trust me...they dont.

I admit that when I first encountered her I was a bit perturbed by the fact that she struggled with english. But, as time went by and she worked there longer, her engrish (couldn't resist) got better, to the point that I could have a conversation with her.
I say, if a person is in this country legally, and is willing to learn the language (like she was) then give them a chance!
